It should be a nice day for a parade.

Saturday's forecast calls for a mix of clouds and sun early followed by cloudy skies this afternoon. Expect a high of 78 with easterly winds at 10 to 20 mph.

"We'll see an increase in cloud cover as we head through the afternoon," 10News meterologist Ashley Batey said. "The rain chances are going to stay east of Tampa Bay, so the Gasparilla forecast looks fantastic for today. If you're heading up to the Dade City Kumquat Festival, you're going to be great shape there as well."
